Spring is just around the corner and it is my favorite time of year. With the trees blooming and flowers appearing, I love spending time outside. I really enjoy spending time in my backyard listening to music and enjoying a nice glass of wine with my hubby. We love cooking outside too when the weather gets a little warmer.
Potato salad is always a great addition to a picnic or barbecue dinner. I like the tang you get from adding vinegar to this potato salad, but it’s the bacon that really makes this potato salad amazing! I hope you try it and let me know what you think.

5 pounds red potatoes, cubed
